The Itinerary Architect: Creating Memorable Itineraries

Join us as we talk with Amanda Lugenbell! Amanda is the Assistant Director at the Blowing Rock Tourism Development Authority, a role she’s been adapting to since 2007. She's the go-to gal for communications and media relations, along with content strategy and website management. She graduated from Appstate’s Hospitality & Tourism Management program and started her hospitality career in local restaurants before taking on new challenges in the destination marketing realm. It’s a field she finds endlessly engaging because she believes in the transformative impact tourism has on small businesses and communities. On this episode we got to speak with her about itinerary building for both marketing and leisure travel!
